djokovic, i unvaccinated is novak djokovic, telegraph sports section on the back pages talk about him facing a grand slam band, and whether he will be able to go and play in the french open and wimbledon. it is already unlikely he is going to play in the us open, and he is treading at his zist us open, and he is treading at his 21st grand slam, isn't he, sienna, this record? looks like he might not be able to do it this year at least. yes, obviously in the last few weeks, i hate listening to sport news in the morning, when he comes on radio four — "don't care, please! please move onto the political stuff!" but recently it has been the novak djokovic stuff, the stewing and probing between the government and probing between the government and the courts there, what to do about the fact he is unvaccinated, and in the end, he was deported, and i we are talking about, will be allowed to play in the french open —— the toing—and—froing. he faces being locked out of three of the four majors, and interestingly wimbledon also give no assurances it would allow him to play, even if the uk government permits unvaccinated overseas sports people to compete and to train here was to

feel bad for djokovic, but i do feel the kind of revelations he gave, a face—to—face interview with a french newspaper only two days after he tested positive for covid, the fact he was going around without a mask on, things like that, it really does challenge my capacity to jeopardise with him, to be honest. abs]!!! challenge my capacity to “eopardise with him, to be honest._ with him, to be

news, where we start with everton, who've have made contact with the belgian football association about roberto martinez taking over from rafael benitez. this after his controversial time in charge came to an end on sunday after less than seven months in charge. 0ur reporter patrick gearey has the latest. the writings on the banners. the fee to bottom side door which was ever ten's nine plus in

sacked by the owner. at everton, even stars can have an echo of the past. patrick gearey, bbc news. staying with the premier league and burnley�*s match against watford tomorrow has been postponed. sean dyche's side don't have the required number of players due to injuries, africa cup of nations commitments and covid—19 issues. when you get to the point you feel you cannot add leaks that you cannot, that has to be looked at. and they have welfare, and the hardest thing of all, because we are asked to isolate, they can to train, and therefore when they come back in, you've got two days to get ready and they can't play, and that's very difficult. celtic were 2—0 winners over hibernian as a full capacity crowd was allowed following the lifting of scottish government restrictions. fans are back for the first time in 2022 and came in their droves. new signing daizen maeda ofjapan scored for the glaswegians after just five minutes of his debut. and a second from the penalty spot from josip juranovic 20 minutes later set the hoops on their way, as they move to within three of leaders rangers. cameroon have finished top of group a at the africa cup of nations after a 1—1 draw with cape verde today. the tournament hosts took a first—half lead thanks to vincent aboubakar, his fifth goal of the tournament. but they had to settle for a draw after garry rodrigues equalised, although cameroon finish top, while the blue sharks will have to wait and see if they go through as one of the best third—placed sides. burkino faso also go through after they finished second thanks to a 1—1 draw with ethiopia. former tottenham midfielder christian eriksen could return to the premier league. brentford have confirmed that they've spoken to the danish international about the possibility of signing him. eriksen's contract was cancelled by inter milan last month, as he's not allowed to play in serie a with the implanted defibrillator he had fitted, following his cardiac arrest at euro 2020. no such regulation exists in the premier league and a number of clubs are said to be keen to sign him. the rugby world has been responding to the tsunami in tonga over the weekend. communications have been badly damaged, making it hard to establish the scale of the destruction. wasps player malakai fekitoa has taken to social media to offer his help, saying, "i would like to send goods and food supplies from auckland, new zealand to tonga. can anyone please direct me to where i can send a container?" tui lolohea, a rugby league player from huddersfield giants, has also been giving his reaction. i have seen just images of houses, i've seen one of a car that was out there, and people ran outjacob anyone was in the car, and as they came back in, the waves were coming in pretty hard, so it is pretty hard to watch. but, you know, for credit to watch. but, you know, for credit to people who have helped people with this tough week they have had. i probably will donate something or do something to raise money back. i think it is a nice gesture, to help people get back on their feet. it's day two at the australian open, with britain's emma raducanu on court for her first match in the evening session in melbourne. the 19—year—old us open champion who's seeded 17th has been handed a tough draw against american sloane stephens, herself a former us open winner. six

he'll go up against 21st—seeded georgian nikoloz basilashvilli. and for more on that and everything else, you can head to the bbc sport website, but that is all your sport for now. hello. moonlit skies for many, but it does mean a chilly start to tuesday morning, widespread frost, the exception being parts of western scotland, northern ireland. a bit more of a breeze here. but temperatures away from towns and city centres could get as low as —3 to —5, particularly through the heart of england. it's here where there's the greatest chance of some fog patches forming to take us into the morning commute. some of that will be pretty dense in places, slow to clear. away from that, though, most will go through the morning fairly sunny. a bit more cloud develops across the south into the afternoon. and across northern ireland and scotland, the cloud will increase more generally, bringing some outbreaks of rain, particularly for northern ireland and western scotland. but they will be fairly showery in nature. still some dry weather to be had. 9 or 10 celsius here with that breeze coming off the atlantic. where the fog lingers the longest, a chilly 3 to 5 celsius are the highs even with some brightness. then as we go into tuesday night, it stays largely dry across the southern half of the country, but some heavy showers, gusty winds push down across scotland, northern ireland and eventually into northern england. but it does mean a colder start to wednesday morning. see you soon. welcome to newsday, reporting live from singapore, i'm karishma vaswani. the headlines.
